Great private first night in San Sebastián!

Gregory was very eager to meet us and show us all he could in our evening tour.
He was full of information and taught us about history, food, current issues in the region, and answered our many questions.
Our experience in San Sebastián is definitely richer after spending our first evening here, with Gregory.
It’s a pricey tour but it’s private and feels like you have a local friend that takes you to their favorite spots and knows the best things to order.
Thank you, Gregory!
Response from Host , Sep 2021

THANKS AGAIN!
HAPPY TRAVELS!!!
Agur,
Gregory
This was my first small group tour...
Esther N
, Jun 2018
This was my first small group tour and it was absolutely excellent. Of course the tour content was great, the food was amazing as was the history, however, what really made the tour for me, was Gregory. Both my boyfriend and I agree that it was like doing a tour with an old mate we hadnt seen for years. He was very funny and outgoing whilst also being very knowledgeable. We had so much fun we arranged to meet up again the next day to tour the markets and do a causal cooking class with him over a few drinks.
If you are debating whether to do a tour or just walk around and eat the Pintxo on your own, then consider this. All the food is beautiful, but the really good food is written in spanish on the chalk boards, not prepared waiting on the bar. We tried some incredible dishes and drinks that we wouldnt have known about if it hadnt of been for the local knowledge. Just some food for thought
All in all I give it 6 stars...I couldnt recommend this tour enough!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
